What did you do to your FZ today?

[mies]

Installed an SW-Motech topcase with integrated brake light. Think it looks Nice.

Redlined my stock FZ1N against a modded FZ1N redlining in first and second off the traffic lights (yesss!) and blew him away twice!! A rare thing for me to be at the lights with another N so we both could not resist going for it. Do not despair modder's, I only weigh 64kg!! Still, I was surprised...............:sinister: Cheers.

Installed a Yoshimura R77 slip on. It sounds beautiful! It's barely louder than stock, but just has that growl that makes it sound like it has some go (which it does)View attachment 10908View attachment 10909

I rode to work every day this week.

My new grips showed up in the mail, have to wait till Monday to put them on.

No air compressor at the house right now.

Wet with light dish soap water, then let it dry a few hours. Changed mine last night!

I've heard that can backfire the first time you ride the bike in the rain. No personal experience, but have just heard more than one person make the point that if the grips get wet then the soap will get slippery again, etc.

Trickle charged the battery for the last time. It goes to it's new home soon.

That makes sense, but I have had good luck with it so far. My bike sat in full sun all day, grips are seriously cooked on there now.

I can confirm this to be incorrect as I have put grips on using this method in the past with no issues. It rains most of the year here and I've never had a problem.

I now use Red Bull to put on grips as it's quite slippery and dries sticky. It's even easier than soapy water

I use a little hairspray.

Got to go for a nice ride and enjoy using my last two mods - helmet lock and a nice rear bag that mounts to the pillion and makes it looks like its mounted to the bike -

Had a nice ride today and for once, I didn't have to stuff everything in my pockets or jacket. Can change glasses and leave my gloves with the bike now. When I stopped for lunch, I went inside without having to tote my helmet and didn't worry about it not being there when I came out. I bought Sargent seats and kept the stock seats - when I don't want the bag, I just change back to the Sargent pillion.

Looks Great, where did ya get the helmet lock ?

 

[Duster_360]

It came from Webike in Japan -

It is the one that's on the new Fazer - its a Yam part. All I need to do to make it perfect, is locate a locksmith that can key the helmet lock to my ignition key. Its no big deal if I have to carry 2 keys though....

here's a thread about helmet locks and what others have done -

Put on my new 8" Carbon Delkevic can!

I put my new grips on this week, Pro Grip 719's. So far I really like them.

I rode to work every day this week also. My truck is very jealous of the FZ.

I drained the coolant, sucked out the resorvoir with my shop vac, and refilled the radiator, very slowly as the manual states. Then filled the resorvoir. Then went for a long ride with my buds.

What tail bag is that? I was thinking about getting a top case but this looks way better.

Goggled it, found this.

Sexy Octupi, I'm looking for a new tinted screen with a tad more wind block over stock. Have info on that one ? Thanks.

Well to my surprise my Radiator Grill was here when I got home from work. So out to do the install, Dig it...
